Actress Son Na-eun will be joining JTBC‘s new Saturday-Sunday drama ‘Madame Ok’s Tale’ (written by Park Ji-sook, directed by Jin Hyeok).

According to Donga.com‘s coverage, Son Na-eun will appear in ‘Madame Ok’s Tale’ as a character who will have a special presence. She plays an indispensable role in the development of the story and has a great influence throughout the entire drama. Son Na-eun‘s historical drama acting, who has grown into a leading actress through numerous works, is drawing attention.

‘Madame Ok’s Tale’ is a work that depicts the fierce survival fraud drama between Ok Tae-young (played by Lim Ji-yeon), a foreigner whose name, status, and even her husband were all fake, and Cheon Seung-hwi (played by Chu Young-woo), an entertainer who risked his life to protect her. Lim Ji-yeon, who gained attention for her performance as a villainess of the times in the Netflix original series ‘The Glory’ (written by Kim Eun-sook, directed by Ahn Gil-ho), is expected to properly display her rising acting skills in this work.

In addition, Son Na-eun, who recently grew into a leading actress through the JTBC weekend drama ‘Family X Melo’ (written by Kim Young-yoon, directed by Kim Da-ye), will add her historical drama acting. In addition, young actors Choo Young-woo, Kim Jae-won, and Yeonwoo will join the cast to create special chemistry.

Lim Ji-yeon‘s unconventional acting as she embarks on a life of identity laundering has already drawn attention through still cuts and teaser videos for ‘Madame Ok’s Story’, which will be aired for the first time at 10:30 p.m. on November 30.
